Movement disorders can be hypokinetic (e.g., parkinsonism), hyperkinetic, or dystonic in nature and commonly arise from altered function in nuclei of the basal ganglia or their connections. As obvious structural changes are often limited, standard imaging plays less of a role than in other neurologic disorders.

Movement disorders cause difficulty with ambulation. Hypokinetic disorders produce a slow gait with short strides and impairment of balance. The hyperkinetic disorders are also marked by an impairment of balance, caused by rapid or uncontrollable movements of the limbs or trunk, that interferes with the normal rhythm of walking.

Paraneoplastic movement disorders
Current Neurology and Neuroscience Reports, 2009Neurologic paraneoplastic syndromes (NPSs) result from damage to the nervous system due to the remote effects of cancer not related to metastasis, infection, or metabolic derangements. NPSs are rare, affecting 1 in 10,000 patients with cancer. Pathogenesis is likely related to the immune mechanisms: normal neural tissue is mistakenly attacked due to ...

To describe the gamut of movement disorders (MD) seen during the clinical course of kuru.Kuru is a subacute spongiform encephalopathy that was confined to several adjacent cultures in the Eastern Highlands of New Guinea and resulted from contamination with brain tissue during the ritual endocannibalism practiced in those societies.

Movement Disorders in Pregnancy
Seminars in Neurology, 2007Movement disorders are not commonly seen during pregnancy. As a result, there are few studies on whether disease manifestations are affected by the hormonal changes that occur during pregnancy or on the teratogenicity of commonly used medications for movement disorders on the developing fetus.

Movement Disorders Emergencies
Seminars in Neurology, 2019AbstractMany acute and potentially life-threatening medical conditions have hyperkinetic or hypokinetic movement disorders as their hallmark. Here we review the clinical phenomenology, and diagnostic principles of neuroleptic malignant syndrome, malignant catatonia, serotonin syndrome, Parkinsonism hyperpyrexia, acute parkinsonism, acute chorea-ballism,

Psychogenic Movement Disorders
Neurologic Clinics, 2015Psychogenic movement disorders (PMDs) can present with varied phenomenology that may resemble organic movement disorders. The diagnosis is based on clinical evaluation with a supporting history and classic features on neurologic examination. Ancillary testing, such as imaging and neurophysiologic studies, can provide supplementary information but is ...

Psychogenic movement disorders
Parkinsonism & Related Disorders, 2012Psychogenic movement disorders are common, but the diagnosis may be difficult. Visual appearance alone is typically not sufficient to make a diagnosis, but such information is certainly important. That a movement is bizarre can be helpful, but still must be considered thoughtfully since organic movement disorders can have endless variety. The diagnosis

Current Opinion in Neurology, 2013
The aim is to review sleep disturbances in different movement disorders, mainly Parkinson's disease, and highlight current concepts on merging the boundaries between movement disorders and dissociative states of being.Since the observation that rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD) may be an early marker of neurodegeneration, many studies ...

Hypokinetic Movement Disorders
Journal of Neuroscience Nursing, 2000Hypokinesis is the term used to refer to slow or reduced movement. Hypokinetic movement disorders are often referred to as parkinsonisms because they display clinical features of idiopathic Parkinson's disease (IPD). As a result, distinguishing other parkinsonian syndromes from IPD is difficult, and it is often not until post mortem that a misdiagnosis
